Caprice At Crowne Plaza Reading East

The worst meal I've had in years. Really bad, I have no idea how this place has won awards. Our waiter was awful as well, it took minutes to get our drinks at the start and my girlfriend received a cocktail with lipstip marks on the glass. They then got the bill wrong and tried to charge us for more items than we ordered.

As it was lunchtime the restaurant and guys at front of hse etc appeared not to be switched on Im guessing they don’t normally do Many covers for Lunch It was like they were in shock that I was there Shame

Starter and dessert was good. Steak was very poor quality meat, incredibly chewy and gristly. Menu also different standard to that shown on website.

Modern, atmospheric restaurant and good service. Although we were the only table. The menu was not as listed on opentable and was a standard gastro-pub menu at upmarket central London prices for shepherd's pie). I would not consider eating here again.

The food available was nice and tasty, but for the prices the portion sizes for all courses were very small. The vegetarian vegan options were limited, and the burger option listed on the menu, the restaurant had completely ran out of, which meant there was one vegan main option or a vegan salad! I understand things run out but we specifically booked because it was a recommended vegetarian/vegan options restaurant. We had also left a note on the booking we would need vegetarian and vegan options, this is why it was disappointing when you see there was a very limited choice.
